Liverpool set to slow down Arsenal in PL

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah controls the ball during the UEFA Super Cup match between Liverpool and Chelsea in Besiktas Park, Istanbul, on August 14.

Arsenal have collected maximum points from their opening two matches in the Premier League for the first time since 2009.

That encouraging start will be severely tested at Anfield tomorrow.

Liverpool are the only other team to have won both of their games, and they didn't lose at home in the league last season. The Reds have also scored 22 goals in their last six league fixtures against Arsenal at Anfield, most recently winning 5-1 in December.

Champions Manchester City will look to bounce back from drawing against Tottenham in an away match against Bournemouth, with both teams on four points.

Among the other games, Manchester United host Crystal Palace, who haven't scored yet, and Chelsea visit Norwich, whose striker Teemu Pukki is tied as the leading scorer on four.

The third round of games begins with Everton's trip to Aston Villa today.
